Conveniently move your fermentation tanks / eggs around your facility with this Molded Rolling Base. This unit is designed to work with Speidel 240 l Tanks (BRAU710) as well as the 250 l Fermentegg (FE760). High quality casters allow for easy relocation of tank as necessary for cleaning / general brewery work.
Adds a bit over 6.25 inches to the height of your vessel.
This temperature and defrost controller is required when using a Kreyer defrost kit.
The temperature control unit controls room/cooler/cave/cellar temperature when used in conjunction with a Kreyer fan unit. Kreyer fan units are plumbed to a Kreyer Glycol cooling unit. This unit turns on and off an optional solenoid placed at the inlet of the fan unit, which allows chilled glycol to enter the coils on the fan unit, while also turning on the fan(s) that blow cold air out into the room.
When using a Kreyer Fan unit for below freezing temperatures, you must also use their matching defrost kit. Kreyer Defrost Kits consist of an electric heating element or spiral and are fitted directly to their respective fan unit cooling fins. The Defrost Kit melts any iced condensate that can accumulate on the fins when the fan is used with Glycol-Water set below the freezing point. The Defrost Kit will periodically melt any iced condensate allowing you to use your fan unit at low temperatures.
For use with MR, SD-S, SD Plus, and TA Kreyer Fan Units.
For a fan unit temperature controller to be used above freezing temperatures, see our GLY980.

Think Stave Segments, evolved. The BeerStix Domininos are 1 1/2" square segments of oak, milled to give you quick extraction, and full flavor. While similar to conventional stave segments, you will see similar results in a much shorter timeframe, making these much more suitable for beer. This is a 490 g (1 lb) bag of French Oak Domininos, Toasted Medium Plus and sized to oak 100 gallons of Beer. This is the quickest turnaround on a Beer Stix product. At one month extraction, you'll see a quick integration of rich oak character due to the high surface area of these domininos in contact with your beer.
Thanks to careful selection of oak, followed by precise aging and seasoning, and exact toasting, these Domininos will provide a round and rich oak character specific to the toast level and origin. French Oak toasted to a Medium + with the beerstix milling will give your beer toasted roasty aromas reminiscent of coffee, along with some caramel, and a subtle sweetness that gets the whole palate. Different beer styles will accentuate or mask different flavors from the oak, so expect some variation!
Features:
Oak Origin - France, Allier Region
Toast Level - Medium Plus
Oak Form - Domininos, 490 gram
Volume Treated - 100 Gal Beer
Extraction Time - 1 Month (see note below)
Flavors & Aromas - Coffee, Roasted Toasty aromas, Caramel, Slight Sweetness
Please Note - Allow 1 month minimum extraction time to balance the extraction of short and long grain from the Stix. Removal of the wood early only allows certain extractions of flavors and primarily from the short grain in the BeerStix® milling.
Imported grape picking bucket from Italy with a sturdy handle. Is more maneuverable than a 5 gallon bucket when trying to get in and around grapevines and is also much easier to carry. They do a lot of handpicking in Italy... they have it figured out!

Who doesn't like a faster brew day? Help your 50L Braumeister get up to strike temp and to a boil faster; and use less energy to maintain the boil with this neoprene sleeve from Speidel. Fits both new models as well as pre-2015 models.
Beerstix 8 piece Barrel Tethers are a great new means of imparting high quality Oak flavor to your beer. These tethers are designed to fit through the bung hole of a barrel, and sized to treat 59 gallons of beer (for smaller volumes, or less oak impact, simply cut off sections as necessary). Thanks to careful selection of oak, followed by precise aging and seasoning, and exact toasting, these Tethers will provide a round and rich oak character specific to the toast level and origin. French Oak toasted to a Medium + with the beerstix milling will give your beer toasted roasty aromas reminiscent of coffee, along with some caramel, and a subtle sweetness that gets the whole palate. Different beer styles will accentuate or mask different flavors from the oak, so expect some variation!
The Beerstix miling gives 60% more surface area compared to the Winestix, speeding up the extraction process, and getting you a beer that has a rich oak character, in less time. The Beer Stix are also milled thinner than the Wine Stix, allowing for denser toasting.
Features:
Oak Origin - France, Allier Region
Toast Level - Medium Plus
Oak Form - Barrel Tether (8 Piece)
Volume Treated - 59 Gal Beer
Extraction Time - 2 Months (see note below)
Flavors & Aromas - Coffee, Roasted Toasty aromas, Caramel, Slight Sweetness

WineStix are a new form of oak integration for wine, designed to give new barrel flavors with an extraction time similar to cubes. The combination of Short and Long grains result in amazing gradience of flavor similar to barrels, while extracting significantly quicker! These are Dark toast French Oak Tank Staves from the Allier forest, and depending on the wine, will impart flavors of dark coffee, some carmelized sweetness, and a roasty smokey character that will compliment big blockbuster varietals. The French Oak Tank Staves are sized to provide New Barrel flavor to a 60 gallon lot of wine. Doing more than 60 gallons? Simply toss in another stave! Another advantage of the WineStix over traditional staves is that these will not stick together like flat staves would, the cross-hatch pattern will result in consistent extraction throughout the life of these. These can also be cut down if necessary to dose a smaller batch of wine.

The HI1048B is a glass body, refillable, sleeve junction pH electrode with a BNC connector. This electrode features a double junction reference, Hanna's Clogging Prevention System (CPS) technology and spherical glass sensing bulb made with general purpose glass. This pH electrode is ideal for wine must and juice due to their high solids content that would clog a standard general purpose pH electrode.
Clogging Prevention System (CPS™) Technology
Refillable Electrode
Double Junction Design
Hanna Instruments offers a wide variety of pH electrodes that are designed for many different applications. The type of glass used for sensing pH, bulb shape, body material, type of junction, type of reference and electrolyte used are just some of the design considerations.
The HI1048B uses general purpose (GP) glass, spherical bulb, glass body, sleeve junction with CPS™ technology, double junction and is refillable with 3.5M KCl, making it ideal for wine must, juice, and other samples with a high solids content.
General Purpose Glass Formulation
General Purpose (GP) glass, as the name implies, is a standard glass formulation that is used for general use. A pH electrode with GP glass will have a resistance of 100 megaohms at 25°C and is suited for measuring the pH of samples that are at ambient temperatures. The HI1048B is suitable to use with samples that measure from 0 to 80°C.
Spherical Glass Tip
The spherical shaped tip design allows for a wide area of contact with the measured sample. This permits a faster electrode response with a higher degree of stability.
CPS Sleeve Junction
Clogging Prevention System (CPS) technology is an innovation in for the improvement of pH measurements in samples that have a high solids content. Conventional pH electrodes use ceramic junctions that can clog quickly when used in samples that have a high solids content such as wine must or juice. When the junction is clogged, the electrode does not function. CPS technology utilizes the porousness of ground glass coupled with a PTFE sleeve to prevent clogging of the junction. The ground glass allows the proper flow of the liquid, while the PTFE sleeve repels solids. As a result, pH electrodes with CPS technology take up to 20 times longer to be fouled as compared to conventional electrodes.
Double Junction Reference
A double junction electrode has an internal compartment surrounding the reference wire. Silver ions are present in the electrolyte of the internal compartment, which houses the Ag/AgCl reference wire; the electrolyte outside this compartment is silver free. The double junction design means that virtually no silver from the electrode enters the sample. This design allows measurement in applications where silver ions in the sample are undesirable or for samples that contain sulfides that can cause the silver to precipitates and clog the junction. The clogging of the junction will result in drifty and erratic readings.
Refillable
The HI1048B is a refillable probe. Since it is a double junction pH electrode, the fill solution is the HI7082 3.5M KCl. This solution does not contain any silver as with single junction electrode fill solutions.
Glass Electrode Body
The glass body is ideal for laboratory use. The glass is resistant to many harsh chemicals and is easily cleaned. The glass body also allows for a fast transfer of heat to the internal reference electrolyte. The mV generated by the reference cell is temperature dependent. The faster the equilibrium the steadier the reference potential.
BNC Connector
The HI1048B has a BNC connector. This type of connector is universal in that it can be used on any pH meter that has a female BNC probe input. Other types of connectors include DIN, screw type, T-type, and 3.5mm to name a few. These types of connectors tend to be proprietary for a particular type of meter and are not interchangeable.
Single Junction Versus Double Junction pH Electrodes
Conventional electrodes are normally single junction. As depicted by the figure above, these electrodes have only a single junction between the internal reference wire and the external solution. Under adverse conditions, such as high pressure, high temperature, highly acidic or alkaline solutions, the positive flow of the electrolyte through the junction is often reversed resulting in the ingress of sample solution into the reference compartment. If this is left unchecked, the reference electrode can become contaminated, leading to complete electrode failure. Another potential problem with single junction electrodes is the clogging of the junction due to silver chloride (AgCl) precipitation. Silver can be easily precipitate in samples that contain Tris buffer or heavy metals. When the electrolyte solution makes contact with the sample, some AgCl will precipitate on the external face of the junction. The result is drifty readings obtained from the sensor.
Hanna’s double junction system, as the name implies, has two junctions, only one of which is in contact with the sample as shown in the figure. Under adverse conditions, the same tendency of sample ingress is evident. However, as the reference electrode system is separated physically from the intermediate electrolyte area, the contamination of the electrode is minimized. The likelihood of clogging of the junction is also reduced with a double junction electrode since the outer reference cell uses a fill solution that is “silver-free”. Since there is no silver present, there is no precipitate forming to clog the junction.
